To access the variables from a movieclip timeline

Hey everybody!

Normally, I use MovieClip (this.parent) to access a variable that is outside the movieclip I am writing code in. However, this does not work in both functions.

For example:

function editMainText (e:Event) {
     MovieClip(this.parent).headline.text = "Hello"
}

works.

but

function editMainText (e:Event) {
     function editText (e:Event){
          MovieClip(this.parent).headline.text = "Hello"
     }
     editText(null);
}

does not work

There is probably some small errors in my code, but I need mainly to learn how to change MovieClip (this.parent) to work within the second function.

Thank you!

John

does not work.

In most all cases I've seen, nested functions will stand on their own

function () {} editText
MovieClip (this.parent).headline.text = 'Hello '.
}

function editMainText (e: Event) {}
editText();
}

  • How to access the variable from a code of movieclip

    I have variable a = 0 and I want a movieclip that is running to change to 2, what can I write in the code of movieclip?
    I tried parent.a = 2 but it's mistake.
    Thank you

    If the parent is the correct path to a, expressed as a movieclip and try again:

  • Access the associated with a MovieClip Timeline Tweens?

    I'm trying to create a function to take a snapshot of the State of all objects on the stage for a later restore. It works very well for movieclips, text boxes, etc., but now I hit the tweens and MotionTweens and I'm stumped. These are not created programmatically interpolations, but rather those created on the timeline.

    I see that, theoretically, if I could find out if there is a Tween to an object, I could call the position function to know how far along, that's playing, but only if I can find a way to get there from the movieclip, which so far, I'm stumped on.

    Is there a simple way to do this?

    Thanks in advance,

    Eric.

    OK, I did a half-assed solution.

    It turns out that although interpolation always presents a framework of 1, if you actually put the image labels on, those who is the spokesperson correctly. (Go figure!)

    So in my Save function, I inserted mainly:

    If (thisNode.currentFrameLabel! == null) {}

    xmlChild.frame = thisNode.currentFrameLabel;

    } else {}

    xmlChild.frame = thisNode.currentFrame;

    }

    which allows restoring function code, so be it, restore the interpolation as it should.

    It must always go back through and check that all manual interpolations are built with picture on each key frame labels, but close enough for now.

  • How to access the variable in the child video clip

    I have a flash file that uses php to manipulate a database and returns a variable (data_xml) to document data in XML from the database. In this case, as well as others within the parent company. Now, I have a child movieclip that shows analyzed data, but I'm unable to access the variable from the child movieclip. The code associated with this is:

    var myXML:XML = new XML();
    var myXML = XML (event.currentTarget.root.data_xml);

    and I get the following two errors that point to the second line as the problem:

    1151: there is a conflict with definition myXML in the internal namespace.

    WARNING: 3596: duplicate variable definition.

    I unchecked automatically "declare instances of the scene" because I have seen the one proposed for the 1151: error, but I still have not the same two errors.

    Can anyone help? Thank you!

    You've declared the variable twice. Variable can be declared only once in any scope. So, your code should be:

    var myXML:XML = new XML();
    myXML = XML (event.currentTarget.root.data_xml); Note there is no before var

    I look forward to the the statement will change the level property NavPane, called customInt, but it doesn't.

    the output of the console shows that the ' App: Option 1 selector "gets selected in the dropdown list selected index changes, but the onCustomInt() funtion slot never gets called.

    I tried "mainNav.customInt = X" too, but the parameters cannot solve the mainNav.  I get "unknown symbol 'mainNav'" error with alittle bulb.

    what I am doing wrong?

    When you call the second page, SettingsPage.qml, set it as an object.

    Don't do the following:

    attachedObjects: [
    
        ComponentDefinition {
            id: settingsPageDefinition
            source: "SettingsPage.qml"
        }
    ]
    

    Follow these steps:

    attachedObjects: [
        // Definition of the second Page, used to dynamically create the Page above.
        ComponentDefinition {
            id: settingsPageDefinition
            Settingspage{
    
            }
        }
    ]
    

    Then the second page main navigation page in the IDE.  I had the same problem with a multi-page application, I created.

  • to access the eprint from iphone problems

    I have an officejet 6500 has more.  I can access the printer from my iphone at home on my home network fine.  When I'm away from home I can not access the printer through the eprint application.  I connected to the eprint and activated / adding the printer.

    Any suggestion?

    Hello

    Seems that there is communication developed here.

    The iphone uses AIRPRINT and EPRINT not. For airprint works, you two units must be on the same network.

    However, you can use Eprint from your Iphone by sending everything you want to print to the adres e-mail provided by the printer when you set up Eprint.

  • Cannot access the files from the internal hard drive that has been converted to drive external hard after the motherboard is dead

    I can't access the files from an internal hard drive that has been converted to drive external hard after the motherboard is dead. I think that my files are still there, as shown in the volume of the player volume ~ 500 gb which is almost completely full. But I can't access most files, including documents and settings. When I took 'ownership' of the folder, I could open the TI but then it showed everything that was in my documents and settings on the computer file I used to open it, not the documents of the car.

    Uhm... I think the issue here is a misunderstanding of what you watch.

    If you want to access your files from the old hard drive - you need to look in the right place.  If the old system was "Windows 7", "Documents and Settings" is the * wrong * place to look and "Users" would be the place to go.

    You * will * take ownership and change permissions on ALL (you want to propagate to all subfolders/files when do - to save time) in order to get them properly.

    New-->: Windows Vista/7 would have your files located in the directory 'Users' of the root of the drive - and then under your username.

    • \USERS\\Desktop\
    • \USERS\\Downloads\
    • \USERS\\Favorites\
    • \USERS\\Documents\
    • \USERS\\Music\
    • \USERS\\Pictures\
    • \USERS\\Videos\

    ... etc...

    Documents and settings to WIndows Vista/Windows 7 is a symbolic link and would lead to what you see if you tried to use it.
